Bio

Since his eponymous global debut in 2016, GRAMMY® Award-nominated multi-platinum artist Lukas Graham has solidified his status as one of the biggest breakout acts in music.

Known for his emotional depth and powerful live presence, Lukas Graham has sold out tours across Europe, North America and Asia. This year, he will bring songs from the new album Good Times to stadiums across North America as he opens up on 17 shows of Ed Sheeran’s 2026 “Loop Tour.”

Lukas will return in 2027, where he is planning a Scandinavian as well as US headlining tour, having already sold out three of the biggest arenas in Scandinavia.

Lukas is teaming up again with Vestas for another brand partnership where Vestas will supply renewable energy for various music ventures.

Lukas Graham became a breakthrough star with his 2016 self-titled debut album, spawning the 12X platinum, 3X GRAMMY® nominated hit “7 Years,” which has now been streamed 3 billion times globally. The smash was the highest-selling single by a debut artist in 2016, and catapulted the Danish superstar to sold-out tours around the world, critical acclaim from the likes of The New York Times, Rolling Stone, and Billboard, and countless television performances, including The GRAMMY® Awards and the MTV Video Music Awards, where he was also nominated for “Best New Artist.” The song transformed Lukas’ life into a whirlwind — a world away from his beginnings, born on a couch in Christiania, an impoverished quasi-commune located in the center of Copenhagen.

Multi-platinum song “Love Someone,” from 2018’s 3 (The Purple Album), has now been streamed more than 1 billion times worldwide and is 18X Certified Platinum across multiple continents, with performances on Good Morning America, American Idol, The Bachelorette, Dancing with the Stars, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Late Late Show with James Corden, Late Night with Seth Meyers, LIVE with Kelly & Ryan and more.

Lukas Graham Retraces His Roots On Brilliant New Album ‘Good Times’
Aug 14, 2026 ... Rarely do we get to wrestle with the themes of a celebrated songwriter like Lukas Graham; so much of where we live editorially is about youthful indiscretions, emotional insecurity and self discover.
